Rob1885 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Ach that 2-2 game was a real “felt like a win” draw. Worth bearing in mind that back then we would have probably had the lowest budget in the league, Dunfermline probably had the highest and were still splashing the cash, signing players on directors credit cards etc.A lower budget than Stirling Albion and Cowdenbeath. Aye, good son. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't think we had a higher budget ahead of Dundee, Partick, and possibly even Ross County. Thanks for playing though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith that season also “decided” to not win the league because it would have “cost too much” and one of the wee team fans cried to the papers that his PTSD was set off by seeing Sammy The Tammy in a cardboard box. Cardle is Magic, very apt username. He did a great disappearing act in half the games he played. Just the one trick though… -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This still makes me laugh. Apparently the cartoonish machine gun sound effects triggered a fan or two as well. A couple of the tabloids tried to link it to Neil Lennon getting sent a bullet in the post as well, calling the Sammy routine awful and disrespectful etc. I don't recall either set of fans belting out any bigoted tunes that day, or indeed ever. I think the tabloids were just upset that a small bit of attention may have been taken away from their tiresome Old Firm coverage.

Rob1885 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I do love when season 10-11 inevitably crops up on the matchday thread of this fixture. Best season I've had supporting us, financially doped or not [emoji23] great memories. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith posted a loss that season aswell, drama was they spunkrd there directors credit cards on some trash. I'm not even sure we signed ours in directors credit cards, sure the people that ended up paying for Hardie and Rusty weren't even on the board at the time, such was the bras neck of Masterton. 41 minutes ago, DA Baracus said: This still makes me laugh.

Was seething at that 2-2 game, I'm sure Raith had a great chance at the end to win but fucked it, that mightve been the Falkirk game where we won 2-1 though, Chris Smith pulling wonder saves out the bag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 We should have had that league wrapped up before the Martin Hardie show anyway. Lots of daft draws in games we should have won or certainly had winning positions in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardle is Magic Posted March 31, 2022 Author Share Posted March 31, 2022 Imagine how excited those Rovers fans were at half time, about to go top of the table with two games to play.

FBadgers Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Ah 10/11, what a time. How i miss those days. That 2-2 Raith game was one of the craziest games. We battered them until ...Bell? Phinn? got sent off, and then raith battered us. Oddly they hit the bar, i think the post, and had efforts on goal that had they went in would have been worldies, yet scored two of the crappiest goals ever known to man. Guess raith wont care how they go in of course. Sure that game ended around half 5 as well. Mad stuff We did have a wobble in the 3rd quarter, and i remember digging out a win at Falkirk which felt like the turning point. The last minute win at county was the big win of all to make everyone feel it was our year....then i think we won all the remaining games. And the tank! A belter of a moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the falkirk game where smith was out cold for about 5 minutes but played on as we'd used the 3 subs?

Jesus suffering f**k, that was bad, 3 bad goals but don't think i've ever see a worse one than keddie shielding the ball into his own net. imagine walking out that ground if someone would tell you how the season would end? You would have laughed in their face, 'We'll get a late equaliser on tuesday, beat falkirk next week then continue an unbeaten run that has us win the league by 10 points' f**k off you absolute mentalist, that's not happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
